iamsuperdan Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I can honestly say this is the first time I've ever wanted to dabble in real estate. http://www.century21.ca/hudson.purba/Property/BC/V0E_2X2/Tappen/4164_Eldon_Frontage_Road I see at least a dozen cars there I would love to get my hands on. And for the mathematically challenged, 1.45 million CDN is about $1.08 million US. Anyone want to go halfsies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk11 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Every time I'm in the area I try to stop and have a look Great swap meet every spring, too. They're not kidding about that being one of the most beautiful areas in BC, being in the Shuswap just north of Salmon Arm. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful.Will have to remember to swing through here, see if he'll let me wander around with a camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Cohen Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Buy the property, then sell each car/hulk for $4500, x 300 cars, you have your money back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spex84 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I read about this elsewhere, lots of people arguing about the relative condition of the cars and their worth etc.Doesn't matter. It's BC, next door to the lakes...desirable climate, zoned commercial, has a house and a shop on it...It's probably worth what he's asking just for that, and the cars are just garnish. If the seller tries to sell the cars individually, it'll take all his time and patience, and clearly he wants to move on. His sentiment that they're all restoration candidates is kinda sad, though...sure, in a perfect world. Realistically, they're mostly parts cars or scrap. Hopefully some will be saved!I always love checking out the cars stored outside as I pass by; a couple years ago I stopped in and scoped out the cars inside (some nice stuff in there!).My fave from checking out the photos is the faded black Chrysler (?) sedan with flames licking all down the body. Who does that to a Chrysler sedan??? Gotta love it. Would make such a cool cruiser if it was restored. Thing is, you can run out and buy a running and driving example for FAR less than it would cost to restore one...and they're not worth much once you're done, either.

kitbash1 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Wow! Cudas, Darts and a Sunbeam Tiger too. Chevy Nomads in the mix as well. God, Maybe I should take my inheritance and buy the place. Then again, the wife might have something to say about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 If I showed my wife that house, she would freak! But send me that ancient Volvo wagon, a Willys pickup and a few other goodies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
